Noble Families,
We are officially in the home stretch of the 2025–2026 school year, with only 7 instructional days remaining! As we approach the finish line, our staff is committed to helping every student stay focused, engaged, and successful through the very last day of school.
We are excited to share some wonderful news—our OST Math and Science results have returned, and we are seeing tremendous growth across our building! This achievement reflects the hard work of our students, the dedication of our staff, and the support you provide at home. We are incredibly proud of what our school community has accomplished together. We are also eagerly awaiting our ELA results and are hopeful for more great news to celebrate soon.
As we wrap up the school year, your partnership remains incredibly important. Please help us by:
• Encouraging your child to stay focused and engaged each day.
• Reinforcing positive behavior expectations at home.
• Talking with your child about eligibility for end-of-year celebrations and activities.
• Reviewing school communication carefully for important updates about EOY activities.
• Ensuring students arrive on time each day and ready to learn.
These final days are still valuable instructional opportunities, and our teachers are continuing meaningful lessons, small-group support, and targeted instruction to help students finish strong academically and socially. Thank you for your continued partnership and support throughout this school year. It has been a joy to watch our students grow, and we are excited to celebrate a strong finish together.
Mr. Walker, M.Ed.
Principal
Noble Families,
We were incredibly fortunate to have beautiful weather for Field Day, and it was wonderful to see our students enjoying such a fun and memorable tradition together. A huge thank you goes to Mr. Wright for his outstanding planning and organization, as well as to our amazing parent volunteers who gave their time and energy to help make the day so special for our students.
Earlier in the week, we also hosted a tremendously successful Literacy Night, welcoming more than 160 members of our Noble community for an evening of learning, connection, and fun. Thank you to all of the families who attended and helped make the event such a success. We are also grateful to our dedicated staff members who worked so hard to create such a meaningful experience for our students and families.
As we enter the final 7 instructional days of the school year, we remain focused on finishing strong both academically and behaviorally. Students are continuing important learning and participating in end-of-year activities that celebrate their growth and accomplishments. We are proud of the tremendous growth our students have shown this year, and we are excited to celebrate their hard work in the days ahead.
Ms. Barrett
Assistant Principal
Ms. Murray joined the Noble community this year as our Attendance Secretary, seamlessly stepping into various roles whenever needed. While she came to us most recently from working with Gearity, she is no stranger to the district. Ms. Murray has dedicated over 12 years of service to the Cleveland Heights-University Heights City School District, working across various schools and in multiple capacities.
A beloved member of our staff, she brings a wealth of institutional knowledge, unwavering positivity, and a remarkable ability to connect with students, staff, and families alike. We are incredibly fortunate to have her on our team!
As we approach the end of the school year, we want to take a special moment to honor and celebrate the remarkable career of Ms. Clay, one of our Pre-K Paraprofessionals, who will be retiring this year. Ms. Clay’s impact on the field of education spans decades, and her legacy is woven into the lives of countless students who began their academic journeys under her care. She has been a cornerstone of the Noble community, providing a foundation of love, structure, and encouragement for our youngest scholars.
Throughout this final year, Ms. Clay has gone above and beyond her classroom duties, serving as a pillar of strength and a source of profound wisdom for our entire team. While we will deeply miss her presence in our community, we are incredibly grateful for the decades of passion she has poured into her work. Ms. Clay, thank you for your commitment to our children and for the mentorship that has strengthened our staff. We wish you a retirement filled with the same joy and peace you have brought to Noble for so many years!

The plan establishes procedures to ensure that the District's communications with persons with disabilities, including applicants, participants, members of the public, and companions with disabilities, are as effective as its communications with others.
Summer is quickly approaching! As in years past, the Cleveland Heights-University Heights City School District has a summer reading plan for students entering PreKindergarten through 12th grade. This year, we are partnering with the Heights Library Summer Reading Program. There are two ways to participate, by paper or electronically. You can stop by any Heights Library branch to pick up a paper reading log or participate online by visiting the Heights Library page at https://heightslibrary.org/challenge/. Families, visit the Summer Reading Kickoff event at the Coventry PEACE Park on Sunday, May 31 from 2 - 4 pm to register for summer reading in person!
In addition to celebrating our early Ohio State Test results, we are also excited to share encouraging progress from our Acadience assessments across Grades K–2. We are seeing strong academic growth across all primary grade levels, and we especially want to celebrate our Kindergarten students, our earliest learners, who have made incredible strides this year. Since the beginning of the school year, we have seen a significant decrease in the number of students performing below benchmark and a tremendous increase in students meeting important early learning milestones.
This growth reflects the hard work and determination of our students, the intentional support and instruction provided by our teachers and intervention staff, and the partnership we share with our Noble families. Building strong foundational reading and learning skills in these early years is critical, and we are incredibly proud of the progress our students are making. These results show that our students are growing, building confidence, and developing the skills they need for long-term success. Thank you for your continued support, encouragement, and partnership in helping our youngest Noble Tigers thrive. We are so proud of their growth and excited to continue celebrating their success!
